Question 1

A Protection Policy is configured with a Nearsync replication schedule (15-minute RPO). An administrator observes that the system has temporarily transitioned to an hourly replication schedule.

Which scenario would cause this automatic transition from Nearsync to Asynchronous (hourly) replication?

AThe Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure license expired.

BThe bandwidth is insufficient for the change rate.

CA new VM was added to the protection category, triggering a full initial sync.

DA Test Failover operation is currently running on the recovery site.

Answer : C

Question 2

A third-party backup solution is configured to use Nutanix application-consistent snapshots. Backups are failing for several Windows VMs, although crash-consistent snapshots succeed.

What is the most likely cause of the failure?

ABandwidth throttling is configured too low.

BThe protection policy uses asynchronous replication.

CReplication traffic encryption is disabled.

DNGT is not installed or not communicating.

Answer : D

Question 3

Refer to the exhibit.

The administrator confirms that there is sufficient space available in the storage pool.

What could be the reason for free space on the container to be 0?

AAdvertised capacity is set for the container.

BReplication factor needs to be set to 1.

CThick Provisioning is consuming all available space.

DCompression is turned off.

Answer : A

Question 4

An administrator managing critical VMs has been tasked with designing a Disaster Recovery solution where the VMs are brought up on the target cluster if the source cluster experience any issues. The failover needs to be triggered without any user intervention and with minimal downtime.

What automatic failure execution solution is best suited?

ANearsync Protection policy and no witness VM

BSynchronous Protection policy with witness VM

CSynchronous Protection policy and no witness VM

DAsynchronous Protection policy with witness VM

Answer : B

Question 5

An administrator initiates an unplanned failover due to a primary AZ outage.

What is the worst-case scenario for data loss and which recovery point will be used by default?

AMaximum data loss equals the RPO in the protection policy, VMs recover from the most recent recovery point.

BMaximum data loss equals the longest RPO, and the administrator must always manually select a recovery point.

CData loss depends only on recovery plan, and the system uses recovery points at the recovery AZ by default.

DMaximum data loss is always zero, and the system uses the most recent recovery point by default.
